Upon arrival my husband and I met with Sacha who showed us to our room and gave us the keys. The view is absolutely amazing!! Definitely the best part of staying here. Not only is the view great, but it's basically your own personal beach. We traveled end of October to early November, which is not peak season, so I can't speak for what the beach is like during the peak season. The apartment has everything you need - there is AC in the bedroom, but not in the rest of the place so it's pretty hot! Luckily there are fans to use though :) The location is great as you can walk basically anywhere (to Accra Beach, St. Lawrence Gap...) or take a ZR bus anywhere else (Oisins and further up the coast). We met Natya a few days into our stay - she is so nice! We were celebrating our honeymoon and birthdays and she showed up with a bottle of champagne for us! Both Nat and Sacha are great hosts and respond to any questions in a timely manner. All in all...for the price and location you really can't beat it!

CarlyNovember 2016

Everything about our stay at Villa Vistas exceeded our expectations. The location of the Villas are great and were close to restaurants, grocery stores, rum shops, public transportation, and duty free shopping. Sacha was a great host who was very attentive to all of our questions. He helped us schedule surf lessons and find new restaurants. The villa itself was amazing. The view cannot be beat. Having A/C, WiFi, TV also added to it's comfort. Having laundry onsite was incredibly convenient. We would absolutely stay here again.

MartiNovember 2015

My husband and I went to stay at Sacha's apartment early October this year. We were greeted with a very warm welcome and was showed around the apartment, informing us of all things we would need to know. Sacha also helped us with booking tours and recommended restaurants and bars that we could visit and would ring and book for us. The apartment was great. Really spacious and great if you want to have a self catering holiday and go at your own leisure. It's situated right on the beach and the view couldn't of been better. We had beach towels and loungers provided and a outdoor shower which was great for the beach. There is a supermarket across the road and a bus stop outside the apartments. Overall we had a fantastic stay and would go back and stay at Sacha's again. He is accommodating and a lovely host. :) and he has the cutest dog of all time!!!!!!

HelenOctober 2015

We have just arrived home from 14 nights in Villa 5 which we were absolutely delighted with. Unfortunately we didn't meet Sacha but his sister was an excellent host and I was still able to email queries to Sacha if necessary. Apt 5 is on the ground floor, so opens out onto a balcony with a few steps to the beautiful beach and Carribean Sea. The flat is spacious and bright, well appointed and very comfortable with modern furnishings, a well equipped kitchen and plenty of towels including ones for the beach. The area is between St Laurence Gap and Accra Beach so there's a good selection of restaurants and bars from casual to fine dining, and Sacha will recommend places he knows to be good if you're not familiar with the area. Overall, I would definitely stay at Vista Villas again and would like to thank Sacha and Nat for going way above the call of duty during our stay. We wish we still there! Helen & Paul (UK)

HelenMarch 2015

I'm struggling where to start to be honest. On arrival the apartment was dirty, smelly and as we had only come to Vista Villas on the reviews and photographs left on the AirB&B app we were appalled at how different it was. When we finally got a hold of Sacha he apologised and on our return from lunch the apartment was cleaner and flowers and a bottle of wine had been left. The next time we saw or spoke to Sacha was on our departure day. Would I recommend Vista Villas to anyone else? In short no. The building is grubby and tired and we didn't feel at all welcome. Sacha is more interested in impressing guests in what looks like more expensive accommodation next door to Vista Villas. We were at Vista Villas out of season and it felt like it. Would I recommend Vista Villas to anyone? Hell no!! Do I feel cheated and did the experience of Vista Villas ruin our holiday? Yes it did. I feel disgusted with the way I have been sold a lie and frankly I would like my money back.

MarkSeptember 2015

Place was amazing. Everything that we were told in the description and more. It was in the most convenient location. Close to the grocery store all the restaurants and all the restaurants. The bus stop is right in front so you can get around very easy. The beach in the back is beautiful. It's literally 2 steps away from the back door. It's a very private beach. No one is in sight and if there is maybe 3-8 people. I would stay here again and I recommend it to anyone looking for a nice quiet and relax space.

JebrilSeptember 2014

Beautiful vacation spot. Sacha was great - very communicative and helpful before and during the trip. The neighborhood puts you in walking distance of bars and restaurants, and right on the main road if you want to venture further. We opted to rent a car, and when there were hiccups with my original reservation, Sacha helped find a great alternative rental service that came through that day. The apartment we got was on the ground floor and opened right out onto the beach(!), which was peaceful and never busy. There are certainly fancier places to stay on the island, but this was a great option for those who want to go out and do more exploring on their own.

MimiDecember 2014

I had a great time in Vista Villas - awesome location, between some of the best beaches on Barbados. You can easily get anywhere with the bus for 2$. Our apartment was literally 3 feet from the ocean with some great ocean view. A big advantage for me was the nearby Mojo's restaurant - I've visited some of the Barbados top 10 restaurants according to Trip Advisor, and Mojo's beats them all, even though it's just bar food. Being able to eat lunch there everyday and then have some awesome drinks at night was really making the Barbados experience much better.

Jan's place was great! Everything was as described in the listing. Although we weren't at the cottage a lot, it was a great place to return home to after a day at the beach. The neighborhood is quiet and nice. The cottage was a quick 10 min walk to the beach, and the beach was BEAUTIFUL. Jan was a great host, she was super thoughtful and provided everything we'd need for our stay. We'd definitely stay there again.

AdrienneOctober 2016

Jan was wonderful! So helpful and the apartment is really beautiful. Very clean + really well equipped. I would definitely recommend Jan's Mango Cottage to all my friends and family

MandyJuly 2016

Jan was very professional and friendly, and the villa has everything you could need for a short stay. Very clean, peaceful and comfortable. The villa is very well equipped and has great WIFI. I'll be going back.

OwenMay 2016

Jan was terrific. She went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant, including taking us on a grocery run when we first arrived.

DejiSeptember 2016

Jan was an amazing host! I booked the cottage a couple months in advance of my trip and we corresponded off and on leading up to it. It was my first time to Barbados and Jan answered all the questions I had. During my trip, she made great recommendations about restaurants, places to visit, etc. Her hospitality went above and beyond - she arranged a cab to pick me up from the airport since I was arriving in the middle of the night and even bought a few groceries for me before I arrived. The cottage was very clean and had all the household items I needed. It was the perfect size for myself and my aunt. It is in a convenient and beautiful location. I would definitely recommend Jan and the Mango cottage to anyone traveling to Barbados.

JessicaApril 2016

Jan's home is a great place to stay while in Barbados. I stayed here recently for a few days while I applied for a visa. It was really comfortable place to stay, in a safe neighborhood and only a 5-10 minute walk to the beach. Jan was a really lovely host, leaving some milk/juice and cereal in the house for breakfast, as well as some handy tips for the local area. She also organized a local driver and a local phone to make things really easy while I was there. Thanks Jan!

KylieFebruary 2016

Our stay was very pleasant. The cottage is lovely! We had everything we needed and felt very comfortable in the space. And Jan was awesome in helping us with our changing schedule. We had to extend a few times and she was so helpful. Great place to stay.

ShyanneJune 2016

We have been here for 14 days and enjoyed our stay with miss Jan. She made us really welcone, even bought some things for breakfast as we arrived saturday evening late. The apartment is clean and provided with all necessary equipment for a perfect stay! Would definitely return again to this accomodation during our next stay on Barbados

Located in a safe,friendly neighborhood.Close to public transportation.5 minute walk/2 minute drive from one of the best beaches on the island.We are located close to the Hastings/Rockely area which has many bars, restaurants and shops. Gas station a few minutes walk as well. Bridgetown is less than a 10 minute drive away. One of the hosts lives in the downstairs apartment so we will always be easy to reach. Our place is good for couples, business travelers, families (with kids), and big groups.

Our neighborhood is a family friendly, close knit neighborhood. It is relatively quiet. One of the hosts lives in the downstairs apartment so if they are any issues you can get in contact with us very easily.
This location is close to public transportation. We are also right next door to a car rental company so if you decide you want to rent a car for the day it's easy pick up!

Michelle and her mother were both wonderful hosts. They both greeted us upon arrival and went out of their way to show us around the area of Barbados we were staying in. The apartment is lovely and well equipped and in a great location. It was unfortunate that while we were staying there the island had a water pipe burst and there was no water in the apartment the majority of our stay, but the hosts brought us bottles of water each morning to use and drove us to the yacht club down the street so that we could still shower while we were there. It was a great experience even despite the inconveniences. Definitely recommend!

devonOctober 2016

Perfect trip to Barbados thanks to this apartment! Great location, well-decorated, well-equipped kitchen, lovely terrace, fast wifi, very comfy beds, big bath and beach towels provided... Michelle and her mother were really welcoming, gave us lots of useful info about the area and I was able to get in touch with Michelle instantly if we had any questions. We had such a good few days and were really sad to leave such a nice place! The only thing you could note is that 1 out of the 3 bedrooms doesn't have air con and the showers weren't particularly powerful - but neither issues bothered us really. Would also like to recommend the local car rental company Bajan Car Rentals (or also known as Chelsea Motors), who are just round the corner from the property - really cheap and friendly service, nice change from the big international companies. I'd also say it's worth checking out some of Michelle's recommended restaurants/bars indicated on the map as we visited a fair few and enjoyed every single one!

CaitlinNovember 2016

We are a family of 5 and felt very welcome and comfortable in this space. The neighborhood was very quiet and we always felt safe. The host was great and very helpful. I would definitely stay there again.

Situated on the ridge above Oistins (famous for its Friday night fish fry), this house offers stunning views from Atlantic Shores to St Lawrence Gap. This is a traditional Barbadian chattel house. With five large windows in the 18x10 foot bedroom this house is always cool and comfortable, even on the hottest days.

This is a large private bedroom in a shared house. The bathroom, kitchen and living room areas are shared.
I live here and am usually available to give advice or show where the buses run.

Our stay at Tony's was full of great memories. It felt like home immediately. Tony took us out with person in other room on several occasions. We went to kareoke or just hung out n cooked. We had many enjoyable times. The beach is a 15 min walk. As is Oistins. The place has everything you need. It is a great deal. Would stay here again for sure. Thank-you for everything Tony.

JasmineSeptember 2016

Our stay was short but very comfortable. Cathy was very amicable and willing to transport us to our locations. Tony was very helpful, especially for changing the light bulb to a brighter one. The house was very clean, tidy, in order. There was not as much mosquitoes and the wifi worked great. I would recommend Tony's house any day.

LienSeptember 2016

My stay at Tony's was comfortable and relaxing. Had a wonderful time. Tony and Cathy are great hosts. Looking forward to my next trip in Barbados.

WrenneciaNovember 2016

Tony is new in the airbnb-business and I have been his first guest. He lives in a typical chattel-house between the airport and Oistins. The house is made of wood and there is always an airflow, which is good in these hot climate. My room was spacious and I had a fan. I could put my food in the huge fridge and also could use the kitchen. The facilities are simple, but clean and there is a little minishop beside. There were some problems with the (new) internet, but I guess this will be done for the next guests. This place is by far the cheapest option in Barbados - you will not find a cheaper place to stay (except couch surfing). I had a car, but the minibuses run frequently, so it´s also an option without a car. Most of the communication is with Kathy, a friend of Tony.

EkkehardJune 2016

Nice time with nice man!

AinoJuly 2016

Very friendly host. Great great value for a room with a nice view on the ocean. Very clean house. Nice comfortable Bed with a fan for the hot mornings. 15min walk to coast & 5min walk to bus stop going into the city. Prepare for some mosquitoes at night. Some locals recommended that i dont walk in the neighborhood to late at night but I did it a couple times and everything was fine, taxis are pretty cheap anyways, be sure to negociate the price. Wifi works great I had no problems. Thanks Tony & Cathy (helping Tony to work with Airbnb) & sorry for leaving with the keys :S Overall very satisfying and a great great deal.

alexisJuly 2016

The house and room was a really good good choice. Everything is clean and the room is definitely big enough for two people. Tony and Cathy helped me in every situation and told me a lot about the island. I hope I will be back one time. The next bus station is just two minutes away. The walk to the beach takes round about 15 min and back 20 min. It's a safe neighborhood and the walk down to the beach and up to your room is nice. You will see and meet a lot Barbados people!

Maggie managed to make me feel welcome even though she wasn't able to arrive herself at the beginning of my stay. She called me in advance of my trip and gave me contact information for her business partner who would also be staying at the house, and was easily reachable on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) if I ever had questions or needed help. Her business partner was also very helpful and friendly. The listing description was accurate, and the neighborhood was quiet, conveniently located within walking distance of a shopping center.

TrevorJuly 2015

Thanks to Maggie, it was so nice staying here! Unfortunately we didn’t meet but we talked on the phone and I could contact Maggie whenever I needed some help. The accommodation is a 25 min walk away from the beach, but this shouldn't stop you from booking. The area is very nice and the next Bus Stop is nearby (it's easy to get around the island by bus). Furthermore the garden and the pool are just lovely, the bed is comfy and you got everything you need :) Wifi works perfect in the house and even in the garden. I can highly recommend Maggie's Place!

FranziskaJuly 2016

Maggie's home is beautiful, as is her yard and pool. It is situated in a lovely neighborhood. It felt wonderfully tropical, comfortable, and relaxed. She was kind enough to pick me up from the airport, and let me tag along with her on some of her outings. She took care to see that I had what I needed. I really enjoyed getting to know her, and I would like to think we will be lifelong friends. We had many great conversations and good laughs together. Only negatives were the distance of the bus stop from the house (1/2 mile, or 1/3 mile once you know the shortcut) and the mosquitos. I loved the open air feeling with the french doors, but the downside was no screens lets in more bugs. I slept well every night, despite the firm mattress. It was nice and quiet too.

CindiFebruary 2015

Well what can I say here! Maggie was amazing very educated and welcoming lady she turned from a host to what I hope to be a friend for life I would stay at maggie's place again in a heart beat! It was relaxing peaceful gardens and pool was lovely clean and refreshing and yet easy access to all the attractions on the South Coast a bus stop was within a few mins walk from maggie's villa shopping at the Sheraton also a few minutes away Maggie offered a lift on many occasion to the beach or the supermarket,we sat had breakfast together chatted for hours I spent time with her friends and family and was made to feel so comfortable and relaxed in there company I would recommend it to anyone and will most certainly be staying again I miss you already Maggie x

PaulaApril 2015

Maggie is a great host. I had a great time. The Place is safe, clean and nice. It has always hot water, good wifi, super comfortable and very cozy. She found some time to take me around, recommended good Restaurants and shops, went to a karaoke bar with me and to the beach. Maggie is warm, and welcoming Person who loves to give you more information about his beautiful country. His gave me the feeling of being at a home, far away from home.

Even tough there is a bus stop with-in a 10 mins walk, I highly recommend having a rental vehicle while you stay.

The stay at Crystal Court was amazing! We had a wonderful time there and Kori is a great host! The appartment is very spacious and clean. The equipment in the kitchen is more than satisfactory! The pool is very nice! The only thing I would recommend is renting a car when you stay there. It makes your life easier! Although a big supermarket is only 10 min walking, and there is a free bus shuttle back. So thats good to do! But I would definitely come back!

JuliaJune 2013

We had a really nice time at Kori’s, he was a great host and gave us lots of tips on places to go and things to do. The apartment was very comfortable and the pictures are accurate, it had everything one would need for a relaxing time. Kori was always available by phone or email if we had a problem or question. It is located in a nice, residential neighborhood which was calm and relaxing after touring around all day, as was a dip in the pool. There were rackets and balls provided for tennis and the full kitchen worked out well for us as we like to cook with local ingredients. As it is not directly near anything, a car is a good idea. We really enjoyed our time there and would definitely stay again, highly recommendable.

Hi, we have just came back after almost 2 weeks at this amazing house. The flat was very nice, spacious, clean and fully equipped in everything you can think of. The area is private, safe and really calm. We had access to the swimming pool and tennis court - feels like your own as there were hardly ever people using those facilities. We enojed the stay at Kori's house a lot. He was also checking if all was fine with us or if we needed anything. Thank you Kori! What a great holiday! Monika & Spiros

MonikaMarch 2015

It was our first trip to Barbados, and first time we decided to go with apartment rental instead of staying at a hotel. I was a bit concerned, because while on vacation last thing you want is to be worrying about such things like cooking, laundry, cleaning a room, not finding something you really need, etc. However, I must say, it was absolutely great experience, and thank to Kori we enjoyed our stay a lot. His apartment is modern, nicely decorated and super clean. It had everything we would ever need, so my cooking/cleaning experience was very pleasant. He left some basic breakfast stuff in the fridge, so we didn’t have to worry about what to have for breakfast for at least few days. Having washer and dryer was a great help too. My husband liked cable TV with a great choice of channels, and good speed internet was also a nice thing to have. Location requires a car, however we were planning to rent a car for the whole duration of the trip anyway, as Barbados is a small island with many fabulous beaches, so we explored different areas every day. Clermont area, where apartment is located, is very well developed, and most touristic places are easy and quick drive to using major highways. So, if you consider Kori’s place for your vacation – just go for it. You won’t be disappointed, it’s great!

VictoriaFebruary 2013

Kori went over and above being a host .and kori helped with issues that normally others would not have helped I am not a good traveller yet he made things comfortable , the place was clean,organized and safe thx

Terry April 2015

First off, I must say that Kori was a great host! He greeted our group with the warmest of welcomes when we first landed and he dropped by on the last day to say goodbye. The space was just as described, better than described actually. It was well laid out with all that we would need. It was also central to everything we did on our stay so we felt really at home. Quiet, secure and close to all the fun! Our group of 3 all agreed that we would stay at Crystal Court again at the drop of a hat!

NigelAugust 2015

Seven days of heaven! The condo/apartment was beautiful and the pictures of the interior didn't do it justice. I would recommend adding a picture of the outside of the property as this was something I was looking to see before booking. The accommodation was pristine, comfortable and with pretty much every utensil you could need. A lovely touch was the healthy chilled apples and the cold beer in the fridge - thank you :-) I was there with two children aged 11 and seven and we all had an absolute ball. Kori even thought to have a little night light which for the first night the kids really appreciated. The pool and tennis court were a stone throw away from the apartment and at this time of year (Oct) we had the pool all to ourselves .....everyday! Excellent value for money and I would certainly recommend to friends. You absolutely need a car with this apartment as it is quite a walk in hot temperatures to a bus stop or, what is in the car, a very near supermarket. The location is convenient for days out going north to Holetown or Speightstown or south into Bridgetown. No journey was very far unless you timed it at rush hour of 4.30/5.30PM which I did just the once! Totally agree with the reviews that swayed me to book that this is home away from home.

Our recently painted self contained apt is perfectly situated if you love the beach or golfing or both! We are just a 6 mins walk to Accra Beach (aka Rockley Beach) on the South Coast, and also our property adjoins the Rockley Golf Club (with our own garden gate access). We have a large property - 17,000sq ft approx - with mature trees. Monkeys pass through in the morning and again in the evening (in search of fruits). Come and enjoy some time at our white sandy beaches here in Barbados!

The apartment is on the ground floor of the house with its own front door entrance, that you may come and go as you wish. It's just been painted throughout (August 2016) in a fresh white colour. The apartment has a spacious sitting room/dining room, and a bedroom with ample wardrobe space and two large windows. Bathroom and kitchen are also spacious. The windows throughout the apt allow breeze and light to pervade the apartment. We have selected some bright Caribbean art to adorn the walls and hope that they give you a Caribbean feeling when you are here. The kitchen is a rectangular shape and cubpards are not new, but freshly painted. It comes with a fridge, microwave, toaster and cooker/oven, and all utensils you will need to make yourself a meal. (Pls ask if you find need something additional while you are here). The shower has excellent water pressure. Our water is heated by the sun via the solar panels on our roof. You are welcome to use our washing machine, if you are staying for longer than a week and running out of clean clothing. I hope you will find the apartment comfortable and encourage you to feel free to ask if it lacks something. We have rented a private room in our previous apartment where we lived before and enjoyed welcoming guests there and had very good reviews as Hosts.
We are in a great location if you wanted to Golf or Beach or Both! If you really would like beach stuff, like surfing or paddle boarding or diving, these are possible in near by beaches and we can put you in touch with these various services. Chances are they will offer you complimentary pick up from home. If too much activity doesn't appeal to you, then lounge by Tiki Bar on Accra/Rockley beach with a good book, and you have food and drinks at your finger tips there too!
Barbados has lots of fancy restaurants on the water front - The Cliff (top one), Cin Cin, Champers, Zen, are a few that come to mind.
If you would like any more info, please drop me a line, I'll be happy to answer your Qs.
The short 6 mins walk to the Accra beach area is where you will pick up bus services to nearby Oistins and St Lawrence Gap (both night life) and into Bridgetown (local and duty free shopping - Jewelery: Little Switzerland (carry some Tiffany & Co pieces), Colombian Emeralds and Diamonds International). Clothing can be found in Cave Shepherd (Mac make-up, Ralf Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger and beach gear (swim suits, trunks, Tees, summer outfits etc). You can also go on the bus all the way down to the West Coast and again you can pick up that bus service at the Accra Beach area.
The Garrison Savannah is walk(able) from here (perhaps 25/30 mins) or a short bus ride from the Accra Beach area.
So we are in a super location to get to places.
You have access to the whole apartment (obviously!), and feel free to chill out under a cool tree in the garden if you so wished.
If you would like information on where to go around Barbados, I'll be happy to assist! We can interact as much or as little as you prefer.

We are on a row of homes located on the edge of Rockley Golf Course, each having our own private garden gate onto the course. If you are interested in playing Golf, please make contact with Rockley Golf Club directly. The short 6 mins walk to Accra is nice passage through an old Barbadian neighbourhood. Barbadians are proud home keepers. Once you reach down to Accra Beach area, you will find a mixture of eateries, and convenience stores, beach, board walk, restaurants, etc. At one end of Accra Beach is Tiki Beach Bar and the other end is the stunning Hastings Boardwalk - perfect for early morning or late afternoon strolls to watch the sunset.
You may access the bus system by the short 6 mins walk to accra beach area. There are a number of buses that can take you along the South Coast (to, say, Oistins or St Lawrence Gap), or down to the West Coast. If you would really like to explore Barbados, you may want to consider car hire for a day or two.
Taxi from the airport is about USD20 each way.

High spec apt, very modern in a very central location. You'll love it!
Wifi, parking and warm, welcoming, helpful host. We're local and keen to help make your stay in Paradise amazing. Ask us anything!

In a safe and lovely neighborhood on the edge of Rockley Golf Course. Super central and easy to get where ever your heart desires.
There is a bus stop at the end of our gap and we have a reliable taxi service on hand.

Julie's apartment was beautiful and modern. It is very close to the beach with great access to a running trail in close by Hastings. You are also close to a bank, a coconut vendor (on the weekends), two grocery stores, a Jamaican patty and Trini doubles spots, and a variety of stores. Julie and her family/staff are accessible and very helpful, and she checks in during your stay. Help with taxi is available with Julie to and from the airport, and a bus stop close by to get the local bus or van for a ride to Oistins (fish market) or Bridgetown proper. It was a lovely stay.

LisaApril 2016

Only met Julie once for she was away during most of my stay but she made sure I settled okay. She responded very quickly to my emails. Her place is so clean and in a great location next to the grocery store, beach, bus stop, and restaurants. I felt very safe there as a solo female traveler. I will book it again next trip to Barbados.

SarahNovember 2015

We had a lovely stay in Barbados. The flat was exactly as shown in the pictures, very clean and modern. It is within walking distance to the beach, several good restaurants and the supermarket. St Lawrence Gap and Oistins are just a quick bus ride away. Upon arrival, Julie met with us and showed us around the flat. She was very helpful in providing us with information about the numerous restaurants in the area. She even booked the catamaran ride for us.

We had a marvelous stay at this location very clean very accommodating it's a little off the beaten path but nice quiet neighborhood not far from public transportation. There's two supermarkets within a five minute walk and lots of eateries within walking distance. Our host was very helpful when any questions arrived

TimJune 2015

Overall we had a good experience. The property was in a good location near the bank and grocery stores. It was just being cleaned when we arrived (which we didn't mind all that much really). The owner (who was very nice) arranged for airport pick up so we didn't have to worry about finding the place. WIFI was available after the first day when it got turned on;)

DaveNovember 2015

My experience was both positive and negative. I will begin with the positives, Julie assisted me with transportation for one of our excursions. The place looks like the pictures that were provided, it is located in a pretty quiet area minus the barking dog, and the sonata that the native bugs create. Julie arranged for us to be picked up from the airport and taken back, both drivers were very punctual. The apartment was clean when we arrived, however there were a couple of items that need to be replaced. The love seat in the dining room/living room needs to be replaced as it is very dirty and ripped at the bottom. Also there appears to be some sort of electrical socket that was ripped from the wall in the bedroom. Julie did provide a variety of literature about Barbados which was helpful. Upon our arrival we were barley acknowledged by a gentleman who I presumed to be her husband. He simply pointed us in the direction of the apartment and informed that she would stop by later. Julie did stop by and provided me with information and answered any questions I had at the moment. The cons were the fact that the apartment does not have central air, Julie also was pretty slow in responding to questions or requests. Before arriving at the apartment I was informed that she provided toilet tissue among other necessities. When we arrived there was only one additional role in the bathroom. We ended up purchasing our own and once that ran out I contacted her, she didn’t respond for over six hours. When she did she apologized stating she was busy etc. by that time we of course had remedied the problem. This is the place for you if you enjoy walking, and also being one with nature as my significant other ended up killing four very large roaches. I would also suggest removing shower rug as it is no longer white. Overall I would say it was a decant stay but there are some things that could be improved. I would also suggest some type of written information that assists guests with being able to use their cell phones in Barbados.

NatakiJuly 2016

We'd like to congrats Julie by the incredible home that is available. The neighbourhood is safe and well located with restaurants, supermarkets and near the beach (amazing beach). The house was clean and is exactly what we saw in the pictures. Thank you Julie for your hospitality! Best regards, Thiago

Stay Play Getaway...
OceanView Vista overlooks the beautiful Bridgetown Port where all cruise liners dock. Lounge on our veranda to take in this sight. It is most spectacular at night. Enjoy a 20 minute walk to Brandon's or Brighton beach. Meet locals on your way there. Swim, snorkel, scuba dive, sight see, hike - you name it, Barbados has it. There are myriad coral reefs to explore, sunken shipwrecks to view. Bridgetown is a 10 minute bus ride. You can travel anywhere on the island by public transport for merely $2.00 per trip. What a sweet deal! Rent a car if your time is limited, you'll see a lot more.
Our friendly property manager will greet you on arrival and leave you a refreshment pack to tide you over until you get to the supermarket. He will be available by phone if you need any help.
Guests have the run of the house! The property managers will help by taking you to supermarket and 'Q in the Community'; a local hangout for locals and tourists.
I not usually at home when guests are there, but the property managers, Joan or Leslie keep in close contact with guests.

The neighborhood is easily accessible. Service by ZR vans and a government-run bus which goes to Cave Hill, near to the university campus. The beach is about 20 minutes away. There is Chanel and Carlton supermarkets close by and S J Health & Bakery Ltd even closer.
Easy as pie! ZR vans are privately owned and run frequently. Although somewhat noisy, passengers are friendly and greet people already there with 'Good Morning/ Afternoon. The fare is $2 regardless of the distance. The government run blue buses are not as frequent as the ZR vans, but the fare is the same. You'll need the exact fare for this bus service.
There is a scenic ride on Sundays leaving Independence Square at 2 PM. The tour takes you to various venues around the island. You can take a picnic lunch with you.
Then there is the Mount Gay Visitor's Center on Spring Garden Highway. You'll get to sample Bajan rum. It is close to Brandon's Beach.

Patsy was an absolutely wonderful host! I stayed at her home for nearly seven weeks while doing research at the National Archives and had family stay with me while I worked; we had a fantastic time. Her property manager, Joan, met me the first day and was a great help throughout my visit, arranging for someone to come clean so I could focus on work and offering suggestions of things to do and places to visit - she even offered to take my Dad down to the beach herself! It was really helpful to have a local contact, especially since I was on my own for about half of my stay. The house is in a great location, close to UWI, and in a quiet, residential neighborhood. The only trouble I had was when some neighborhood kid decided to play a prank and throw an egg through an open door - and Joan looked into it right away. Oh, and the house is absolutely beautiful! It was a wonderful place to relax after a long day at the archives or out exploring. I was also able to cook at home, which was great for a longer stay. Personally, I liked having the freedom of a rental car, but public transportation was easily accessible. The beach was a little bit of a walk, but not too bad at all, and Brighton beach is very pretty. Definitely take Joan up on the offer to take you to the Oistins fish fry (or, if you don't like crowds, go on Saturday night - fewer people, but there's still karaoke).

I shared Patsy's place with two colleagues while we attended a conference at a local university. We enjoyed the large, spacious house. We cleaned up a bit ourselves when we arrived since it's infrequently occupied. It's a quick ride to the university or to other sites in Barbados if you have a car (we used taxis). During our conference, amenities like the kitchen and iron helped us get ready in the morning. A friend of Patsy's, Joan, picked me up from and dropped me off at the airport. On the way in, she took me to the supermarket for groceries and lunch. On the way out, she generously gave me some mangoes! Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

KaneeshaOctober 2014

My family spent a wonderful week at the OceanView, the house/villa certainly lived up to all expectations. The location is perfect for a relaxing beach holiday but is within easy reach of Bridgetown and other attractions. Brighton Beach is a 15 minutes walk away offers safe swimming for both kids and adults. Both Patsy which we had the pleasure to meet in person and Joan the property manager were extremely friendly and offered excellent advise and little tips. We found it a really nice touch to be treated like family and never like a lodger. Patsy even managed to take us to the local beach which my little 5 years old son loved! The OceanView offers an excellent access to Bridgetown and local supermarket. We found OceanView to be in a safe area and extremely spacious with great views from balcony with excellent in-house facilities provided. We would recommend afternoon tea/cocktails on the balcony with sea view. We are not disappointed with our stay at Oceanview and our family had an excellent/great time in Barbados. We will certainly be returning, hopefully very soon! Ps. if you would like to experience the real Barbados and live with the locals then OceanView is the place to stay.

KarlDecember 2015

Patsy's place is a wonderful value. Clean and well kept and centrally located (we rented a car). There is a supermarket close by and we made good use of the kitchen throughout the week. It's well stocked with equipment for basic cooking needs. The porch was a (URL HIDDEN) sit outside and listen to the birds in the morning and look at twinkling Jupiter at night. One piece of advice if you are a very light sleeper is to bring ear plugs. There are a few barking dogs and crowing roosters around, although my partner slept through all the nature noises.

LaurenFebruary 2014

We spent mostly a week in the house, it is exactly as described. Plenty of space with a view on the ocean (which is not so close). We really enjoyed our stay at Patsy's. Leslie who received us, has even brought us to the airport for a reasonable fee. Thank you :)

LaurentJanuary 2015

Great location clean , Great well appointed kitchen.. Great views. TV modern flat screen , Wi-Fi all good. Telephone free local calls. Handy for bus into town Patsy was the best hostess and supplied a fantastic welcome pack.

RonaldFebruary 2014

Our family enjoyed the clean house and would suggest it to anyone. I would recommend renting a car to travel the island. We used an awesome app that got us everywhere. It's called Waze! Thanks again for having my family. We loved Barbados!

Charming home in a friendly family compound. Quiet neighbourhood five minutes walk to Carlisle Bay and beautiful Brownes Beach. One km from Bridgetown for buses to all parts of the island. Large enclosed garden and verandahs for relaxation.

Traditional style Barbadian chattel house remodeled to suit growing family. Three bedrooms comfortably sleeping six people: (A) queen bed (B) full size bed (C) double bed OR two single beds with private patio. One bathroom with shower plus a second toilet. Many secluded areas where you can relax while being surrounded by original art. Books, DVDs and board games can be borrowed from the family's collection. The space cannot accommodate children.
Complete kitchen set up for use by guests. With a wide range of restaurants nearby and accessible by bus, most guests opt to dine out. Internet access, laundry facilities and parking are also available.
The host and her husband are nearby in their separate upstairs apartment and can provide help when needed. They are well informed on the local scene and can make suggestions and provide event calenders for day or night activities.

Workingclass Barbadian neighborhood with real community people that will give a sense of how life is on the island. Our street of Dunlow Lane is safe, the house is respected and its guests are appreciated by the local residents. As in all cities we, as hosts, will advise on how to get around and where to avoid to make your trip most pleasurable.
We are 1 km from Bridgetown and the bus terminal . The number 11 bus down the lane will take you all along the south coast past Oistins. Buses cost $2.00 BBD ($1.00 USD).
Make reservations for cars as soon as you know your plans, especially in the high season as they may run out.

Washing machine is operated by the host and a fee of $5.00 USD ($10.00 BBD) for washing and hanging to dry one load.
Our 2 friendly dogs live outside the house within our fence. If you are very uncomfortable with dogs then our place might not be for you.

We finally arrived after a 7 hour flight delay after 9pm and were greeted by our hosts, given a tour of the facilities, followed by some lovely fresh food that Rachel has prepared for us. Over breakfast we got the lowdown on the area, how to find places, local transport and where to buy food. Rachel was happy to buy food for us, recommend restaurants and take us places in her car, which turned out to be a very welcome and safer option that some of the buses- which is another story. The description of the house was accurate it was nicely presented and clean. If you are a light sleeper, bring ear plugs as there are roosters who seem to never sleep, other wildlife making noises and the occasional heavy rain storms. The bedrooms have no air conditioning, which was fine during our visit in April and the beds are equipped with mosquito nets. We were a party of 6 attending a sailing event at the Yacht club, which was a 15 minute walk from the house down a residential road and along the beautiful beach. All the local residents were very friendly and willing to engage in conversation and we had no issues over the 15 days. In summary we had a great time and would be happy to make it our base if we are lucky enough to return to the island some day.

jamesApril 2016

The apartment is super cool! It is very comfortable and breezy, and the kitchen has everything you could need! We felt right at home and the hosts did everything they could to make us feel welcome. They showed us around the island and showed us the best places to eat for our budget. The beach is a super close 4 minute or so walk and because it is so easy it feels like less. The bus is also cheap and simple and goes further down the road to another part of town that has a lot to offer. We used the bus almost every day to explore different beaches since there are so many. We were very happy we picked this area to stay because there were many options for food, beaches, shopping, drinks, snorkeling, and scuba diving. It is also a very friendly neighborhood; people are happy to help if you need directions. We would absolutely stay here again.

TrevorJune 2016

Rachel is an amazing women! She took such great care of my friends and I. She made us breakfast every morning for only $5. She drove us around the entire island and showed us everything we needed to see. She made sure that cab drivers did not rip us off and told us the best places to visit. She made it feel like we had a Barbados mom to take care of us. I would highly recommend.

JeffSeptember 2015

We had a blast staying in Bridgetown! Shelley Made us feel very welcome to her AirBnB by showing us around the property & even offering to shop for fresh produce for us from local farmers' markets. The description of the property was accurate & understated. This property is both beautiful & eclectic, built from a modified Chattel House & located in a friendly neighborhood. This home is also packed with pieces of original art & a large library of interesting books... but we spent most of our time swimming at the beautiful Brown Beach just over one block away. Experiences like the Traditional 3BR Bajan Home is what makes AirBnB fun & economical. We met friendly locals and people from around the world! Shelley gave us many tips on ways to have the best local experiences possible. We are eagerly awaiting a return trip to this AirBnB! We had a wonderful time being as "local" as we have ever been in a foreign country!

JenniferMarch 2016

Shelley was absolutely amazing! We were a group of five, having a 5-day vacation at her place and it was the best AirBnb experience I/we have ever made. Shelley helped us in everything we wanted to do. She was very welcoming and gave us tipps only locals could give. The apartment is really in a good neighborhood and the location was perfect. Just down the street you can take the bus which brings you to almost every place you wanna go (Oistin, The Gap, Beaches...) Also the apartment is very clean and we really felt like home. We couldn't have ask for a better host. I'd recommend this place to everyone who doesn't need a 5***** Hotel :) Thanks for having and helping us Shelley and making our trip even extra special! xx

SandraOctober 2016

My family enjoyed the spacious and breezy atmosphere. They felt like they were at home. My family had no complains at all. The host lives close by, which the family thought was great in case they needed her.

Shelley and Manuel welcomed myself and five other guests to their lovely home while we visited Barbados for a wedding. As has been repeated by many guests before me, these two hosts were nothing short of wonderful. We were given the title of "family" within hours of arriving and the rest of our stay felt a bit like visiting a long lost aunt & uncle. For all six guests, the familiar tone, advice, Bajan history & culture, and the occasional home cooked dinner were welcomed with open arms. Privacy and independence were not forfeited in favour of the hosts' friendly service. The house is as described, with numerous spots to get cozy with a book and cup of tea. Speaking of books, in case you forget yours, Shelley's library is well stacked with good reads. The rooms are comfortable and clean. If you're an early riser, sit patiently in the back yard and watch the monkeys pick fruit from the trees. Most memorable were two early mornings: one at the market with Shelley, meeting locals and trying new fruit, and another snorkeling with sea turtles (for a very reasonable price) set up by Manuel. If we are lucky enough to return to Barbados, we will surely stay once more at Dunlow Cottage.

The unit was as pictured. Great views from patio and the beach was amazing and pretty private. If you're staying a while I would suggest having the taxi stop for groceries on the way to unit. If you're a good international driver and plan to explore the island I would rent a car since its about 25- 30US one way to airport, oistins, and the gap. I would definitely recommend and return to property.

angelaDecember 2013

We stayed for one week. Next time will be at least 2 weeks. The place is perfect, just in front of a beautiful beach. The bus stops 500 meters away, and it is easy to go to downtown. There is a fish market and you can buy your fish alive! Just on the back there is a bar, 4 beers per 10 Barbadian dollars, and they sell a good fried flying fish. I rented a car, but if I would stay longer, I would rent only for a few days. There is no grocery store around, they are about 2 km away. Grab a taxi or a bus. You might be a little scared with the electricity plant. It is a kind of noisy on the first hour, but after that period it is not a problem for all of us. We will come back as soon as possible. We are a family with a small baby, perfect for that peaceful place. Thanks Kimberly! We had a great stay!

fernandoDecember 2014

Kim called to make sure we made it in. She came by to meet us and thankfully, my husband met with her which allowed me to swim in the ocean with our son. There was no way for Kim to know everything that went wrong prior to arriving - things that don't matter to this review but when I say, I needed to be in the ocean, I really mean it:). Things like expired passport discovered 3 days before we flew (emergency replacement), lost luggage by the airline the day before in FL resulting in purchasing gear all over again, and a lost debit card on travel day. The picture of the beach is very accurate which was nice to see and made everything just disappear. Kim also suggested we rent a car which was very helpful and so glad we did as we were able to explore the entire island- nice advice Kim. One very helpful addition is not listed on this site at the time I am writing this. There is an outside freshwater shower to rinse off salt and sand before going inside. Hope to see you again soon.

I had the opportunity to spend 6 glorious days at Kimberly Bourne's beach front apartment and did not want to leave. This is an apartment nicely hidden in a small fishing village away from all the hustle and bustle of every day life. It sits directly on the beach, quiet, and refreshing. We had a chance to mingle with the locals who were all very friendly. This is a spot I will revisit over and over again, it far exceeded our expectations. It was almost like a home away from home. Thank you Kimberly for being such a great host, we thoroughly enjoy the time we spent at your place, and would recommend this to others who are looking for a quiet place to relax and soak in the sun.

JennieAugust 2013

Kimberly is one of the most friendliest hosts you can have. I have to praise her even more when you discover how young she is and she runs her own business and is also planning her own wedding! The appartment where my partner and I stayed for eight days was neat and tidy as well cosy. The backyard extends into the beach and waking up to it -- along with the sound of waves and singing birds -- makes your stay even more memorable. This apartment was well equipped with all the gadgets in the kitchen and both bedrooms had lots of linen to choose from. There's good choice on cable TV and the wi-fi was strong, which perhaps made our lives even more pleasant as we were able to catch up with our work as well. What's really nice about Kimberly is that she makes herself available all the time. She is pleasant, knowledgeable about the place and really makes effort to get to know your needs. She has also made efforts to know the neighbors in the community.

Our hostess visited us - made sure we were OK and she was always available to answer questions, give advice and suggestions. She answered emails promptly! The "neighbors" - other vacationers who tended to stay for long times (months) were also very welcoming - every knew everyone. They all introduced themselves so no one was a stranger. That being said - we had as much or little privacy and private time as we wanted. My wife and are are very busy - and the chance to totally determine how much or little we would do was a welcoming treat. We have been to many other resorts - 5 star hotels, etc. but we found that those resorts came with lots of other vacationers. This apartment was quiet and a few steps from the beach...just what we needed. We entertained ourselves. If you need others to entertain you (nothing wrong with that) - this probably isn't the vacation place for you. We brought books to read, card games to play and time to catch up with ourselves as a couple.

20 minutes by taxi from Airport, Public transport by private buses or public transport buses are right at the door step? Taxi's are available 24/7 and hired personal cars are available across the road. One parking space is provided for each unit.
Because of the central location many attractions will offer free transportation when booking tours. Having 2 well stocked supermarkets, a 24/7 Auto mart and Duty Free shopping close by are all wonderful assets for this location.

Before I arrived in Barbados, Wendy kept in touch and even answered some of my funny questions (like; is liquor expensive on the island?). She was very clear in her communication and extremely helpful. She even told me what the cab fare from the airport would be before I arrived. When I arrived, she made time to show me where everything was on a map, how to get around, and things I should check out. Lastly, the condo is Heavenly; i mean HEAVENLY. It's right on the water, with unobstructed view of the ocean. Very clean and close to everything. It was perfect and I had an amazing time staying here. Whenever I'm back in Barbados (soon I suspect), I'll definitely try to stay with Wendy again.

TemiAugust 2016

Wendy was an amazing host - very welcoming, diligent and informative. She accommodated my last minute travel plans and made sure the fridge was somewhat stocked when I arrived . The apartment was lovely, facing on to the water and what felt like a private beach. Very central, it was great for me as I didn't hire a car. I could get to a few fantastic restaurants and shops by foot. Thanks so much for having me Wendy, hope to get back there very soon!

KironMay 2016

Wendy was great. She spent some time with us when we arrived to describe the area and what was nearby. She had maps and ideas for things to do. She also left us with a cold six pack of the local beer. The Condo was exactly as described and nicely situated right on a quiet beach area. It is located near the local bus stop which is a convenient way to get around for only $1 US, $2 local currency. Although the local bus's may not be for everyone,(they can get a little crowded) it really is an affordable and safe way to get around. The condo is one block away from the local convenience store and 3-4 blocks away from the supermarket. Use the cross walk if you're from the states it's safer. They do drive on the left side of the road there. There are many restaurants and bars within walking distance. (my favorite was MoJo's) and a little quiet bar right at the entrance to the condo. Cab fair from the airport to the condo was only $18-$20 US. They also accept the US dollar at almost all establishments too. There is plenty of things to do on the island from the Oistins Fri. fish fry to a fun catamaran ride that includes snorkeling with turtles and a good buffet with rum punch. The people on the island are so courteous and kind. The kitchen in the condo had all the basic elements to cook your own meals if you wished also. Every morning we exercised by walking along the beach just ten steps from our back porch. The next time I come back to Barbados I would definitely stay here again. Thank you Wendy for your hospitality! We loved our stay, even our 17 yr. old son enjoyed his stay.

Bob June 2016

This ocean front listing is just as described. The beach is at the backdoor of this property and is great for all water activities. With 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, kitchen, dining/living areas and a balcony overlooking the water, accommodations were ideal for a family vacation. We were met by our hosts, Wendy and Stephen who stayed in constant communication and provided a helpful list of things to do when we arrived. We were also gifted with Banks beer and local sweet bread to get our vacation off on the proper start! Transportation is right outside the front door as well as restaurants , grocery stores and a Cave Shepard department store. This location is also within walking distance to the other beaches on the south end of Barbados, which are also great and a little more crowded, but very enjoyable. Friday night at Oistins is a must and there are taxis along the main road that will gladly ensure your ride there. The island itself goes without saying, Barbados is a treasure with lots to see and do. Only suggestion is to be mindful that driving is on the left side and the sidewalks are a bit narrow. Again, this location is ideal as we literally would step outside the property and vans, buses and taxis were plentiful. Great, clean accommodations, ocean front property with no crowds. Excellent location.

GilesJune 2016

Wendy was an incredibly professional & nice host from the very beginning. My friends and I had reached out asking for more specific information and additional photos, as the place didn't have any previous reviews, and she replied promptly tending to our requests. When we arrived, she let us into the space and gave us a lot of tips for our visit (she also left us a 6-pack of Banks, the local classic beer, and a loaf of coconut bread!). As to the place itself: We were pleasantly surprised how spacious and comfortable it was. And it was LITERALLY right on Worthing beach, as in we stepped on to our balcony feet away from the sand, with just a small walkway in between. The master bedroom and bathroom was quite nice. The kitchen fully equipped, with even a blender to make tropical drinks. Atmosphere: Definitely seemed to be a bit of an older crowd, but the surrounding tenants were fun, welcoming, and free-spirited. Area: right on Worthing Beach, lots of local food options nearby, and a short walk to Acra/Rockley Beach as well as The Gap & Dover Beach. Incredibly easy to take the public transport, but we didn't often need to as there was plenty to do nearby. Overall, I'd highly recommend renting from Wendy. This was definitely one of my favorite vacation experiences ever, and I would absolutely come back.

Our hosts were too friendly, literally going the extra mile to make our stay more convenient. Thank you Rory for that, much appreciated. The apartment is well located, close to beaches, supermarkets, bars, restaurants and coffee places. Lots of reason to come back one day and we are already looking forward to it.

Rory and Juliet were wonderful hosts. Rory met us and helped with out luggage and getting settled in the condo. They were very helpful, checking in with us to ensure that everything was going well. The condo is great. Right on the golf course and approximately 1 Km walk from Worthing beach, the grocery store and restaurants. The condo is on the smallish side (it is a studio) bet has a small kitchen, bathroom/dressing area and dining area. Great for a couple on a budget! I would definitely go back and stay with them!

Rory was very nice and accommodating! The pool was not busy and felt like a private pool to ourselves. There was also laundry near his unit which made everything convenient. Market was also close by. Wonderful location! Everything was easy and convenient. Hard to complain about anything when you're in Barbados!

Rory was at the apartment to greet us when we arrived & show us around, he left us a bottle of wine to enjoy and met us again at the end of our stay. A really lovely friendly host. The apartment is on ground level, looking out onto the lush golf green. There is a BBQ outside. The inside of the apartment is quite small but has everything you need, well equipped & has storage space. There is wifi in the room & Rory had just installed a new TV as we arrived. The pool is very close. The location is excellent , walking distance to the beach , supermarket, bars & restaurants.

Rory and his wife are very lovely and keen to please. Rockley is a fantastic residential community with great groundskeeping and pool maintenance.

Just back from a lovely stay at Rory's apartment. Rory and a Juliette are great hosts, very responsive during the booking process and when we met them it was like meeting old friends, both very welcoming, friendly and informative. The apartment was perfect, comfortable studio with all you need for a good stay, super comfy double/Queen bed (not like other Rockley apartments with 2 beds pushed together) good AC, powerful shower, nice patio to sit out, plus BBQ. The pool was very clean, we never saw anyone in it, was very relaxing. Gardens and grounds nicely maintained. Good location, walking distance to supermarkets, walkable to beach, St Lawrence, and main bus stops for town or Oistins. If you hire a car it is a good spot for starting your island tours. During our stay a little storm passed through, Rory called to check up on us and was very kind and accommodating with our delayed flight. Nice touches included some starter items in the kitchen, a lovely bottle of rose and some toiletries. All in all a fab place to stay and lovely hosts who went above and beyond. Thank you Rory and Juliette!

Rory and Juliette were very hospitable and the apartment was immaculate. They made an effort to ensure we were welcomed and comfortable. They took the time to show us easier ways of navigating the local area. Would love to stay there again.

Rory was a great host! Very responsive and willing to answer all our questions as it was our first time on the island. The apartment has everything you need and it's located in a nice golf resort area. It's about 7 min walk to the main street and within walking distance to the Supermarket and nice restaurants. If you are not planning to spend a lot of time indoors (which is not recommended in Barbados), this is a very affordable choice for accommodation.

Mark was a fantastic host. I had to stay longer and he really made me feel at home. It was a great location, close to the beach and a nice part of Barbados. Close to transport to get to other places. Mark made me feel right at home.

I would definitely recommend staying at the rose garden apartments. The hosts were very welcoming and made our stay stress free. The apartment had everything you needed and is very close to a good beach and the supermarket. Good value for money.

Mandy and Mark are simply lovely hosts! Very welcoming and always there to answer any questions. This is my second time in Barbados in the last 3 months. The first time we stayed at the Accra Hotel and this time choosing to stay here was absolutely ideal and highly recommended! The appartment is literally 5-6 minute walk away from Rockley Beach and close to all the necessities: grocery store, market, restaurants, local transportation to pretty much all the major attractions ... The AC and fan was much appreciated in the appartment but I must say having the patio was such a plus! Enjoying early breakfast and late night drinks out there ... Thanks again for the wonderful hospitality! Definitely looking forward to the next time!! Teresa - Montreal

Mark provided a great place to stay that allowed for easy access to Rockley Beach and the hub of activities there. He was most accommodating upon my arrival and arranged for a taxi ride to the airport. The apartment was spacious and contained all the necessities for independent living. The neighbourhood was safe and friendly and quiet. Don't hesitate to book with Mark and Mindy!

Mark and Mandy were welcoming and friendly. The apartment was better than expected. I appreciated the shower attachment that dispensed hot water immediate and as warm or hot as I desired. The bathroom and kitchen were very clean and modern as well as the other areas of the apartment. I appreciated all of the channels on the television which is not common at some of the hotels in the area. The neighborhood is excellent. I felt extremely safe as I was able to sleep at night occasionally with the doors wide open behind a solid locked gate. The apartment is surrounded by foliage and provides a certain level of privacy. There are very few people if any walking the streets outside. I count three levels of security including four keys, one of which I returned because I felt I did not need a double lock to my front door. The apartment is also attached to the main home of Mark and Mandy with a separate private entrance. I was glad to be able to lock my valuables in a separate closet. I would prefer this apartment to any of the major hotel chains.

I could not have asked for more! The place is beautiful, private, comfortable and clean.The location is perfect, just a few minutes walk from the beach, a lovely boardwalk (for those who enjoy jogging), restaurants, grocery and anything we might have needed. Its close to public transportation that can take you anywhere on the island and we really took advantage of that, 2$ Bds takes you a long way!! We visited several beaches, the fish market and the trendy Gap amongst many other random stops... Mark and Mandy are a lovely couple, they were very accommodating and available if needed. I have to say that this was one of my best vacations ever, Barbados is in our hearts, we shall be back!

Many thanks to Mark and Mandy who are wonderful hosts. A warm welcome with great suggestions for places to go. Rose garden is the ideal place to get your bearings if you are new to Barbados. Great location to town and beach. All necessary amenities are within a 5 min walk. The appartment is secure and has all that you need to feel at home. A charming place.
